Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE FGFG HIHI JKJK| Loss molds our lives in many ways | A |
| And fills our souls with guesses | B |
| Upon our hearts sad hands it lays | A |
| Like some grave priest that blesses | C |
| - | |
| Far better than the love we win | D |
| That earthly passions leaven | E |
| Is love we lose that knows no sin | D |
| That points the path to Heaven | E |
| - | |
| Love whose soft shadow brightens Earth | F |
| Through whom our dreams are nearest | G |
| And loss through whom we see the worth | F |
| Of all that we held dearest | G |
| - | |
| Not joy it is but misery | H |
| That chastens us and sorrow | I |
| Perhaps to make us all that we | H |
| Expect beyond To morrow | I |
| - | |
| Within that life where time and fate | J |
| Are not that knows no seeming | K |
| That world to which death keeps the gate | J |
| Where love and loss sit dreaming | K |
